Former Federal Commissioner for Information and South South leader, Edwin Clark, says the primary objective of the formation of the All Progressives Congress, APC was to foist on the country, a northerner as president.
The Ijaw leader made the comments on Thursday, February 26, while receiving the Yoruba Youth Council, Worldwide at his Asokoro residence, in Abuja.
According to Clark, APC would cease to be once Muhammadu Buhari is taken out of the equation.
He said: “APC was formed to install a northerner as the president of Nigeria. You saw what happened at the Presidential primaries of the APC where Buhari emerged with very wide margin. Without Buhari, there will be no APC.”
“Nigeria belong to all of us, no tribe has the monopoly of ruling us. Nobody is a second class citizen. We all are first class citizen of this country.”
He added: “Nigerians will only allow a democratically elected President. Buhari in 1983 overthrew a democratically elected President, Alhaji Shehu Shagari because he got the wind that Shagari was going to hand over to a Southern President.”
“Buhari lied over his certificate, even the picture on the certificate is older than the certificate. How can a person accused of perjury be talking about corruption.”
